Isn't It A Pity? sing and play along

Why did I wander here and there and yonder,

wasting precious time for no reason or rhyme?

Isn't it a pity?

were Isn't it a crime?

My journey's ended;

ev'rything is splendid.

Meeting you today has given me a wonderful idea,

here I stay!

It's a funny thing;

I look at you, I get a thrill I never knew.

Isn't it a pity we never met before?

Here we are at last!

It's like a dream!

The two of us, a perfect team!

Isn't it a pity we never met before?

Imagine all the lonely years we've wasted:

you, with the neighbors,

I, my silly labors.

What joys untasted.

You, reading Heine,

I, somewhere in China.

Happiest of men I'm sure to be,

if only you will say to me,

"It's an awful pity we never,

never met before."

It's a funny thing;

I look at you, I get a thrill I never knew.

Isn't it a pity we never met before?

Here we are at last!

It's like a dream!

The two of us, a perfect team!

Isn't it a pity we never met before?

Imagine all the lonely years we've wasted:

you, with the neighbors,

I, my silly labors.

What joys untasted.

You, reading Heine,

I, somewhere in China.

Let's forget the past, let's both agree that I'm for you and you're for me,

and it's such a pity we never,

never met before."
